Anyone have any good recommendations for a good take out place for gluten-free pizza in the Schaumburg/Arlington Heights/Buffalo Grove area? There's a million pizza places around, so there has to be one.

I have yet to find a place in the area that does a gluten-free crust. However... Lou Malnati's does a gluten-free pizza that uses their deep dish sausage patty as the "crust" layer and then piles everything else on top of that - and they use dedicated pans to cook it. Prices start out the same as a sausage deep dish (I get no crust but hey - I have a safe pizza option so I will not complain) plus your toppings.

DaLuciano's in River Grove sells their pizza frozen. Not quite take out, but close - and it's really good. You could probably get it to go if you called.

Aurelio's (various locations) has gluten free pizza and does take-out and delivery, but I've heard it's not great. I haven't tried it myself.

do you have a Boston Pizza in your area. We just found out this week that our local Boston Pizza has a gluten free one with a variety of toppings available. We took our two grandaughters there yesterday and they both enjoyed their pizza. Only single serving size was available, but we were happy to be able to take them out!

Godfather's offers a gluten-free crust. It's decent. Do you have a Biaggi's nearby? They make an awesome gluten-free pizza.

I was told by Lou Malnati's today that they do not have dedicated pans or work areas for their gluten free pizza. So please be careful! They also said they are working on perfecting a gluten free crust, which is pretty exciting.

I believe California Pizza Kitchen at Woodfield has a gluten-free menu, but again, no dedicated pans or work areas. There's a Biaggi's in Deer Park that has gluten-free pizza, but I was underwhelmed by the crust. They use Tinkyada pasta, but I've found it doesn't make the ride home if I'm doing take-out, and honestly, if I'm going to have Tinkyada I might as well make something myself.

Boston Pizza assured us that they have a dedicated work area, pans and knifes for their gluten free pizza's. I hope this idea catches on everywhere. It seems more and more people need to be gluten free.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
